2016 OCCIDENTAL “RUNNING FENCE VINEYARD” CUVEE CATHERINE PINOT NOIR

2016 OCCIDENTAL "RUNNING FENCE VINEYARD" CUVEE CATHERINE PINOT NOIR

From Vinous: "A new wine in this range, the 2016 Pinot Noir Running Fence Vineyard Cuvée Catherine is sourced from Steve Kistler's Bodega Ridge estate, where the Occidental winery is located. Blood orange, red raspberry, mint, dried flowers and star anise are all laced together in this very pretty, expressive Pinot Noir. The 2016 is translucent and wonderfully energetic at the outset, but then gains volume with time in the glass. It is another gorgeous and highly nuanced wine in the range." - 96 Points
